Your Headliners 2024

[Dreamingofsunnydays]

Friday: Dua / Skindred. I’m going to see how much I’m enjoying Dua before possibly hoping over to Avalon 

 

Saturday: Coldplay 

 

Sunday: Plan on just having a mooch around and finish with The Scratch in the SEC. Nobody else is really jumping out at me on the main stages. 

[Grinding aftertaste]

Friday - probably Faithless, though could be tempted to Jungle.

 

Saturday - Orbital will probably be the final live act. I would be up for Jessie Ware but I don't really like joining sets mid way through, so will probably take the opportunity to go to Stonebridge early for Optimo and Erol Alkan.

 

Sunday - Justice, although I seem to be in the minority in having only decent memories of 2017 so will try and get down to the front this time. 

 

All in, certainly the weakest year for headliners of the 6 I've been to.

 

Actually I take that back - 2014 was abysmal!

Jungle

 

struggling like everyone else but I guess Disclosure. There’s about 6 headliners across Friday/Sunday I’m having to miss that would be better. 

 

The National

[thewomble]

Friday: Charli XCX is a definite. Might try to catch part of Dua or Idles beforehand but will see how I feel. Have wanted to see Idles for ages and have seen Dua previously, but also feels like I should at least try to see one Pyramid headliner so dunno

 

Saturday: Peggy Gou

 

Sunday: London Grammar 

[suzie sue]

Friday: fatboy slim opening the dragonfly 

Saturday: erol Alkan on green peace after orbital 

Sunday: national 

[Gnomicide]

Friday: Unsure if to do Idles or Fontaines, neither really excite me that much on record.

Saturday: Possibly Lambrini Girls at Strummerville. I might get swayed by Coldplay for the spectacle and the old songs but having to put up with anything post 2011 will be a struggle. 

Sunday: Andrew On'Neill's History of Heavy Metal

 

Slimmest of pickings for me this year.

[Chip Batch]

Friday: Idles.

Though the terrible clash with Fontaines 😞

 

Saturday: Billy Nomates.

Really poor Saturday night choices for me on the main stages - Pyramid, Woodsies, Other, Park and West Holts all a write-off. There's about four I'd watch on Friday night. 

 

Sunday: The National. 

Though I've not liked much from them since Trouble WIll Find Me over 10 years ago, so not a great year for me and headliners.

Didn't notice Lambrini Girls as Gnomicide said but that overlaps with Billy Nomates and not sure I'll make it. WIll see them somewhere else anyway

[Blisterpack]

Faithless/FBS

Coldplay

Gipsy Kings/Basil Brush

 

Looking forward to all of them. 

[Cat67]

Friday- Jungle

Saturday- Jessie Ware

Sunday -the National or Sza depending on what mood I want to finish the festival on.

[cdm22]

Fri - Probably IDLES but not too fussed as seen them a number of times before.

Sat - New Model Army

Sun - Bob Vylan although done by 10pm! 

 

There really is very little of interest headliner wise tbh.

[-TLR-]

wednesday - The Lost Boys

 

thursday - Pronghorn

 

friday - BlackSkyWhite

 

saturday - New Model Army

 

sunday - DiY 35th anniversary 

[mouserat]

Friday: Dua Lipa or Jamie xx depending on who wins the argument between the two of us.

 

Saturday: Coldplay 

 

Sunday: Had got tickets for The National at Eden Project to make up for probably missing them here but now there isn't really anything clashing with them - so who knows what I'll do.

[Ben7amin_]

IDLES

Barry Cant Swim and onwards (Arcadia) 

Justice

And me! Though Sunday could end up being Justice…depends what kinda mood I’m in.

Was tempted by Justice but I regretted not seeing The National the last time they played.

I think there'll be a trample of people coming from Bob Vylan to the History of heavy metal thingo - its pretty much a straight run from leftfield to cabaret, with the only possible problem being the massive bloody crowd at west holts for Justice!
